Lindsay Paige (authorlindsaypaige) Bored. Post something here. Have a random thought. Here is where you put it. Anything and everything random is welcome.


message 2: by Lindsay (new)

Lindsay Paige (authorlindsaypaige) Has anyone ever craved to read a book by an author before?
Like, right now, for some reason, I really really wish I had a Sarah Dessen book to read. I don't know why, but I do. And what is even worse is I don't have one to read by her that I haven't already read. I will now begin my search to find someone with a book by her.


message 3: by [deleted user] (new)

What have you read by her already?


message 4: by [deleted user] (new)

I've read Lock and Key, Just Listen, This Lullaby, The Truth About Forever, That Summer and Someone Like You. In that order :)


message 5: by Lindsay (new)

Lindsay Paige (authorlindsaypaige) I loved Lock and Key and The Truth About Forever. I have also read That Summer, This Lullaby, and Someone Like You. I haven't read Just Listen or Along For the Ride yet.


message 6: by [deleted user] (new)

I've yet to read Keeping the Moon, Dreamland and Along for the Ride.


message 7: by Lindsay (new)

Lindsay Paige (authorlindsaypaige) I have read Keeping the Moon and Dreamland too.


message 8: by [deleted user] (new)

Were they good?


message 9: by Lindsay (new)

Lindsay Paige (authorlindsaypaige) Keeping the Moon and Dreamland were okay. Was Just Listen good?


message 10: by [deleted user] (new)

Yes. There were bits of things I found annoying, but all in all, yes.


message 11: by Sherri (last edited May 28, 2010 07:34PM) (new)

Sherri (sherrij2003) I've read them all except for Along For The Ride (I'm waiting for it to come out in paperback b/c I weird when it comes to my book collections).

All of them were very good but Keeping The Moon was my least favorite. All of the thicker books were the best.

My fave order would be:
The Truth About Forever
Lock And Key
This Lullaby
Someone Like You
Just Listen
Dreamland
That Summer
Keeping The Moon

Havn't read:
Along For The Ride

**Oh and has anyone noticed the "crossovers" in her books? If you read them in order you can find some of them.


message 12: by Lindsay (new)

Lindsay Paige (authorlindsaypaige) You're order is about the same as mine. I would just take out Just Listen because I haven't read it yet. And move That Summer up above Someone Like You.

I havne't noticed them...


message 13: by [deleted user] (new)

I do the same thing, Sherri!! Waiting for the books to come out as paperbacks, I mean.
I did notice some of the crossovers!

In Lock and Key for example Remy's mother Barbara, Kristy and Ben(? What was the name of Wes' brother again??) appear! In Just Listen, Dexter and Remy make an appearence, which I was really hyper about! And in This Lullaby, Scarlett from Someone Like You has a minor role as the boss of Java Jump!
I think almost every crossover is described in Wikipedia.


message 14: by Lindsay (new)

Lindsay Paige (authorlindsaypaige) so I'm watching One Tree Hill. And I'm on Facebook. And yet I'm still bored!!! Hahaha. What are you guys up to?


message 15: by Lindsay (new)

Lindsay Paige (authorlindsaypaige) oh and check out the poll.


message 16: by [deleted user] (new)

xD I see you're bored Lindsay! Voted on the poll... What's up to it??


message 17: by Lindsay (new)

Lindsay Paige (authorlindsaypaige) Curious, mostly. :) I always seem to be bored! haha


message 18: by Amy (new)

Amy | 12 comments This is random.... but i would just like to point out that i do NOT like the official casting for the "Uglies" movie. NOT AT ALL!


message 19: by Lindsay (new)

Lindsay Paige (authorlindsaypaige) I still haven't read those yet! :( *tear* haha. I have an ebook of uglies but haven't gotten to it yet. I didn't know they were makin a movie either.....hopefully it'll be good


message 20: by Sherri (new)

Sherri (sherrij2003) They are making a movie...when is it due out? I've wanted to read that book but never have!


message 21: by Amy (new)

Amy | 12 comments Oh my!! Definitely read them! I loveeee them!
It comes out next year! I'm so dissapointed in the casting so far though :(


message 22: by Lindsay (new)

Lindsay Paige (authorlindsaypaige) so last week I got paid $70 dollars for babysitting. Want to take a wild guess on what I blew that money on? Every last penny? -_- haha


message 23: by [deleted user] (new)

Uh... on books?


message 24: by Lindsay (last edited Jun 23, 2010 06:09AM) (new)

Lindsay Paige (authorlindsaypaige) haha yup. I was so upset that I blew all my money! But then again I have some awesome books at home waiting to be read. XD


message 25: by [deleted user] (new)

Good for you!
And I have the whole Sweep series at home waiting to be read!!
But I still have school, though. Two more weeks!


message 26: by Lindsay (new)

Lindsay Paige (authorlindsaypaige) Two more weeks? Wow! That's a long time! :( haha how long are you in school for?
and I'm a bit jealous of you having all the books! haha :P


message 27: by [deleted user] (new)

I know, then I have only 6 and a half week free, then school again. So my holiday is from July 7th to August 22nd. The first school day(finally a sophomore!) will be the 23rd.
It's so not fair that all of my friends -even the one from Portugal!- are enjoying their holidays while I am still suffering under things like exams, school projects, teachers, and well, school.


message 28: by Lindsay (new)

Lindsay Paige (authorlindsaypaige) Aw. That sucks. I know here (either its a State thing or a county thing) the earilest we can start is Aug 25th and we usually get out around June 6-10. Somewhere in there depending on when we start. So we get a little over 10 weeks for summer.

Oh and congrats on being a sophomore! I'll be a junior this year. :)


message 29: by [deleted user] (new)

Happy junior year, then :)
It's so weird, since we're at the same age and everything :)


message 30: by Lindsay (new)

Lindsay Paige (authorlindsaypaige) lol yea and thanks :)
